5. The simple money multiplier Suppose that the Federal Reserve ("the Fed") buys $150,000 of U.S. government bonds and the required reserve ratio is 0.30. If the assumptions of the simple money multiplier hold, this will the money supply by Which of the following assumptions is necessary for the simple money multiplier to be applicable? O The amount of cash people want to hold doesn't change when the money supply changes People's marginal propensity to consume does not rise with income. O Borrower default rates are stable. If the correct assumption did not hold, the change in the money supply would be describes why this holds true? than you previously found. Which of the following If people kept some of the new money as cash rather than depositing it in another bank, this cash could not in turn become a bank loan. Of people's marginal propensity to consume rose with income, they would save less, removing money from the financial system.

QUESTION 11 If the Federal Reserve purchases $250 million in US Treasury Securities, what will happen to overall bank deposits under the following assumptions: Banks convert 100% of excess reserves to loans, borrowers return 70% of cash to bank, and banks' reserve requirement is 10% O $437.5 million O $625 million O $833.33 million O $2500 million O $1750 million

Suppose the relevant money-supply curve is the one labeled MS₁; also suppose the economy's real GDP is 30,000 for the year. If the market for money is in equilibrium, then the velocity of money is approximately 2.0 O 12.0 2.9 O 0.5 VALUE OF MONEY 0.5 0.35 MS, 5000 MS₂ 9000 QUANTITY OF MONEY MD

Which set of actions could the central bank use to increase the money supply? Select one: O a. an open market purchase and a tax cut O b. a discount rate cut and an open market sale O c.a reduction in the required reserve ratio and an open market purchase O d. a reduction in the required reserve ratio and an open market sale

Question 3 In the market for reserves, suppose that the federal funds rate and discount rate are both at 7%. If the Federal Reserve Bank sells securities in the open market, then the equilibrium rate for reserves will and the amount of borrowed reserves will O not change; decrease O not change; increase O rise; increase O rise; decrease Question 4 When the Federal Reserve Bank lowers the reserve requirements for commercial banks in the economy, this causes the curve for reserves to decrease and so the curve shifts to the ----- O demand; right O demand: left O supply; right O supply; left

Interest Rate 4% 3 2. O2 percent 0 percent 4 percent a 3 percent MS b d Refer to Figure 15-1. At which interest rate is there an excess money supply? Money Demand Quantity of Money

By using open market operations, the Federal Reserve O a. adjusts the supply AND demand of reserves to keep the federal funds interest rate equal to its target. O b. adjusts the supply of reserves to keep the federal funds interest rate equal to its target. Oc controls banks' demand for reserves, thereby keeping the federal funds rate equal to its target. O d. adjusts the demand of reserves to keep bank rates in line with the federal funds rate target. O e. None of these answers is correct.
